What I've been working on

A tribe called VEED: How our bootstrapped startup became the global scale-up to join in 2022

About a year ago, I landed my first job as a software engineer at VEED.IO, a then small, bootstrapped startup built around an easy-to-use, collaborative video-editing platform. I started during the pandemic as VEED’s ninth full time software engineer; a year later, we employ over 40 developers around the world, and about 130 staff across product, design and growth. At a time of tightening social circles and isolation burnout, working at VEED has helped me feel more connected than I could have ever imagined.

Primed for Change: Why unionizing Amazon’s Alabama warehouse turns a page for all American workers

Today, the vote count begins for nearly 6,000 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama weighing in on whether to form Amazon’s first union shop in America. For a labor market that has changed more in five years than five decades, a yes vote provides a watershed opportunity to turn from the worsening wealth imbalance of the pandemic digital age and shape how work is understood for a coming generation.
